Enter the festival
Long ago, when gods still walked the earth
and Liyue was forged in war and stone…
…the people lit lanterns
to guide their soldiers home.
When the war ended, the lanterns remained,
offerings of remembrance,
rising for those who gave everything
so that Liyue could endure.
Each year, on the first full moon,
the harbor fills with light.
The Lantern Rite begins.
